All three deaths involved unarmed people. I know, shame on you, that the PAPD just bought new Tasers back in December 2022. You and I have discussed on numerous occasions that Tasers are not non-lethal -more than 1000 deaths by Tasers in this country well establish this point. Please warn your officers about the high risk of killing an unarmed person when a Taser is deployed. And please send around the below death by torture incident(see link below) by the LAPD that occurred on Jan 3, 2023. The body worn camera footage was released a day or so after this hideous killing of an unarmed man tortured to death by multiple taser blasts while numerous members of the LAPD stood around and watched Keenan Anderson being tortured. Mandatory that you send this article and video to all members of your department. aram https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jan/11/black-lives-matter-co-founder-cousin-killed-los-angeles-police Sent from my iPhone From:Roberta Ahlquist To:Dave Price Date:Tuesday, January 17, 2023 5:19:40 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

CONTRASTING SENIOR CENTERS-: AVENIDAS, Palo Alto & LITTLE HOUSE, MenloPark Over the 2022 December holidays Little House had two lovcly free meals for seniors, a 3- course lunch with wine, and a New Years Brunch with champagne, and over 80 attended. Bothevents featured festive decorations, an engaging program, and an upbeat environment to meet and talk with seniors. What did Avenidas offer seniors? Avenidas had only a 2- hour event forgrandkids to decorate cookies. If you drop by Avenidas you will see it is grossly underutilized, even thought tere are four or five empty rooms that could be used forserving La Comida lunches, where seniors could meet, eat and socialize. Why isn't this happening? Sincerely, Roberta Ahlquist View this email in your browser What community means. Dear community, The lives of members of our community have been devastated due to flooding over the last few weeks. Several apartment parking garages flooded in East Palo Alto, for example, completely ruining peoples’ vehicles, laundry facilities, and storage From:Lisa Van DusenTo:Council, CitySubject:What Community MeansDate:Tuesday, January 17, 2023 3:46:43 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautious ofopening attachments and clicking on links. areas. Many of those affected were without savings, insurance, or simply the time to deal with such an emergency. Our community rallied to provide resources to help our neighbors. The Palo Alto Community Fund provided immediate funds and was able to amplify the story of the neighborhood’s plight, resulting in many people and organizations stepping up to help. This is what a functional, meaningful, kind community does. It rallies in an emergency. The Palo Alto Community Fund, I am proud to say, steps up in emergencies – from the recent flooding, to our extensive local COVID-19 Relief Fund, and even smaller-scale emergencies like keeping a youth group from being evicted. But what we are also able to do is invest in the nonprofit organizations that work every day so our community can respond to emergencies and can provide long-term solutions and services to all of us, especially to those most vulnerable. How do we invest? We have a growing group of donors from our community—people like you and me—who step up every year and donate. By pooling our money, we are able to invest in our local nonprofits that are doing the hard work on the ground day in and day out to uplift the vulnerable, provide education opportunities, support families and our elders, and improve the lives of all us in Palo Alto, East Palo Alto, and Menlo Park. Because of the generosity of our donors, we can also invest in innovative long-term local solutions to issues such as housing, hunger, and mental health. Please check out our work and see how far your donation to the Palo Alto Community Fund can go to help. We believe giving where you live makes a huge difference. It’s what community means in action. As we approach our annual grantmaking season, can we count on you to dig deep in support of our neighbors in times of crisis, and for the long term?

We kick off the new year with a lookat some wonderful new animals at the Palo Alto Junior Museum & Zoo, including aVirginia opossum, Western pond turtle, barn owls, hedgehog, and bearded dragon. Theseanimals join 61 other animal species at the zoo, providing visitors with an opportunity tolearn about and see these animals up close during the JMZ’s various talks. With the new year, Super Family Sundays are back! For more than 10 years, the Friendshave funded these special events at the JMZ for families who have children withdisabilities. There are several events scheduled for this year, with the first two taking placeon January 22 and February 26 from 5:30 - 7 p.m. To sign up or to see the full eventschedule, go to the Palo Alto Junior Museum & Zoo's webpage on accessibility. I hope to see you at the JMZ soon, and look forward to an exciting year ahead.

Meet the JMZ's Newest Arrivals The Palo Alto Junior Museum & Zoo is home to animals from diverse habitats and homes. In fact, many of the animals at the JMZ are rescues! All three new arrivals featured below are either rescues or animals that were surrendered to the JMZ. Animal care staff are passionate about providing the top care to these arrivals. Virginia Opossum – Ms. O Meet Ms. O! Ms. O is a nine-month-old Virginia opossum. As a joey—the term foropossum babies-– she was taken in as a pet by a loving family. However, as it is illegal tokeep native wildlife as pets in California, Cal Fish and Wildlife relocated Ms. O to the JMZ. The Virginia opossum is the only living marsupial in North America. For the first two months of their life, young opossums live in their mother’s pouch. Ms. O still likes to be carried in a fabric pouch. Members of the animal care staff will wear this pouch over the shoulder, which allows her to be comfortable. She has hammocks, dens, and cavities in her enclosure to climb into. Extremely adaptable creatures, the opossum’s range stretches across much of thecontinent with the exception of some states in the center of the United States. Much likeraccoons, opossums often live in close proximity to humans. Ms. O is an example of ananimal people may encounter in their backyards, which makes her all the more importantto understand. Opossums have fifty teeth, the highest number of teeth found in any landanimal. These marsupials provide great benefits to neighborhoods by eating cockroachesand ticks, which reduces the spread of Lyme disease. Contrary to popular belief,opossums are also extremely unlikely to contract rabies. You can see Ms. O when it is warm in the zoo accompanied by a member of the animalcare staff! Ms. O is introduced to a group of visitors. Photo courtesy of David Liittschwager. Western Pond Turtle The Western pond turtle is the West Coast’s only native freshwater turtle and a protectedspecies. A local family kept our new Western pond turtle as a pet, but could no longer carefor her. She was given to the Peninsula Humane Society and then brought to the JMZ.Turtles that live in captivity cannot be released back into the wild. This ensures that wildponds turtles do not catch diseases from turtles that have been in close contact withpeople. Western pond turtles can live up to 80 years in captivity, which makes caring forthem a long-term commitment. Western pond turtles live in calm streams, ponds, lakes, and marshes. When these bodies of water dry up during summer months, Western pond turtles dig into mud and draw in oxygen through their skin. This helps them survive throughout dry months when water sources are not as easy to find. The population of Western pond turtles is on a steep decline in the wild. These turtles arean Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Saving Animals from Extinction (SAFE)species. Participating zoos continue to work together to create conservation action plansto protect Western pond turtles from disease, habitat loss, and predation. The Western pond turtle will be featured in JMZ zookeeper reptile talks once the weather warms. Snapping Turtles The newest stars of reptile talks, these six snapping turtles were illegally imported intoCalifornia by someone intending to sell them. In the long-run, the JMZ cannot care for allsix, so staff are working to find homes for them in permitted facilities where they willreceive the best care. The common snapping turtle prefers to live in shallow, slow-moving bodies of water withmuddy bottoms, so that they can hide. Like their name suggests, snapping turtles havepowerful jaws that allow them to snap and catch food. During reptile talks, members of theJMZ’s animal care team are able to feed these turtles and show off how they consumefood. These amazing creatures can live up to 47 years in captivity. One of the Barn Owls says hello to a young visitor. Photo courtesy of DavidLiittschwager. More New Arrivals Ms. O, the Western pond turtle, and snapping turtles are not the only animals who arenew to the zoo. Other arrivals include Bramble the hedgehog who along with Ms. O theopossum will be seen during mammal talks at the zoo and can visit classrooms at local schools. The JMZ’s new bearded dragon, Mad Maxine, will also be a reptile talk guestwhen weather permits. Two new barn owls can be seen in the zoo’s wildlife circle.Members of the animal care team are training these owls to fly in classrooms, so that theycan be brought to schools and engage young learners. Another blue-tongued skink, agiant gecko, a veiled chameleon, leopard gecko, and fainting beetles have all joined theJMZ as animal ambassadors.

Be cautious ofopening attachments and clicking on links.   FEC United Education Pillar Newsletter January 17, 2023   Remembering Martin Luther King, Jr Martin Luther King, Jr's famous 'I have a dream' speech is heavy on my heart and mind as we continue to tackle and struggle with the issues presented by SEL (social emotional learning), CRT (critical race theory), and DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) in our schools. Dr King's vision for America, a place where our children are not judged by the color of their skin, but rather by the content of their character is more important now that it ever has been. We have made so much progress in the last half century towards that ideal, yet it seems to remain elusive. We have to continue to fight for meritocracy in this country. Fight for equal access to opportunity, but realize and understand that equal access does not mean equal outcomes. Every child deserves educational opportunities that give them the best chance for individual success. We also need to recognize that the current system of government run schools in this country does not do that for many children. It istime to take the power away from failing systems and focus on how to create opportunity. It is time for a paradigm shift in education. Instead of focusing on social issues and activism, our schools should be focused on teaching the basics and givinghope to our children for what their future could hold. That means a focus on teaching what matters: reading, writing, mathematics, civics, history (yes- both the good and bad, but with a focus on context and progress), and science. It is time to show our children that the best catalyst for change is an optimistic view of thefuture and a deep understanding of the world that they live in.

Image   FEC United Faith Pillar Devotional January 16, 2023   Remember Your Why… Many of us are frustrated that things seem to be taking way too longin our battle to repossess our freedom. Guess what, we are on theright track to reclaim what the enemy (devil) has taken from us. He and his fellow minions are running scared! We are over the target to expose the evil players that have been chipping away at the American way of "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." We chose God as our guide when this country was established. AndGod has blessed us because He was the guiding light in our families, communities, and government. Over the years we have taken God out of our schools, out of our businesses, and out of our government. Sunday used to be a day of rest and worship. Now it is SundayFootball games and soccer practice for our kids… That is all a part of the devil's scheme. He wants to distract us and wear us down, cause discouragement, and forget where our priority needs to be—In God! In the last couple of years, many of us have had our eyes opened to what is really happening in our nation, and we aren't going to take it anymore! Have you noticed that things seem to be going out of control much quicker than ever before? Because we are over thetarget—we are paying closer attention and taking action to make America great again and making God a central part of our lives! Remember God is with us! Stay strong and courageous! Go to Godthrough prayer for guidance, and read His word of truth for refreshing and reassurance to remember why we are standing firm on our positions to take our country back under the banner of IN GOD WE TRUST! Hope you feel encouraged as you read the following scriptures: Joshua 1:9 (NIV)Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." 2 Kings 6:16-17 (NIV) 16 "Don't be afraid," the prophet answered. "Those who are with us are more than those who are with them." 17 And Elisha prayed, "Open his eyes, LORD, so that he may see."Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. Nehemiah 4:15-16 (BSB)15 When our enemies heard that we were aware of their scheme and that god had frustrated it, each of us returned to his own work on the wall. 16 And from that day on, half of my servants did the work while the other half held spears, shields, bows, and armor. Ezekiel 12:28 (NIV) "Therefore say to them, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: None of my words will be delayed any longer; whatever I say will be fulfilled,declares the Sovereign LORD.'" Matthew 11:28-30 28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give yourest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke iseasy, and my burden is light."   Copyright © 2022 FEC United, All rights reserved.

It showed big LNG tankers leaving from Louisiana with our natural gas as LNG headed to Europe to get those high pricesthey are paying. Biden lets it happen and we can all pay through the nose as a result on our heating bills. Due to the "shortage" of natural gas in the US. The big, new LNG facility built by the Germans in a few months, instead of the usual five years. At Wilhelmshaven, on that stretch of coast on the North Sea between Holland and Denmarkwhich is German territory. Germany opens new LNG terminal in record time to replace Russian gas | DW News - YouTube Map showing Wilhelmshaven on the German coast: Poster, Many Sizes; Cia Map Of Germany 1994 | eBay Hear the expert here say, at 2:55, that most of the natural gas being imported byGermany as LNG is from the United States. "Also, from other countries that have"spare capacity". Biden cannot say that is not the case. This guy is an expert. So thesuckers, i.e. the American people, can pay through the nose this winter, and beyond, because our natural gas is being shipped to Germany and other European countries. Our natural gasproducers want to get in on the sky-high prices for natural gas caused by Russian restrictions on what they are selling to Eruope. Biden could step in and stop this, but there isapparently too much money at stake. Just remember when you get your shocking heating bills this winter that the US has "spare capacity" and that is why we are shipping so much ofour natural gas to Europe. They cannot deny what is going on here. It is another screwing of the American people by the United States government to enrich the guys at the top. I guess if we complain, they'llmurder another 58,000 young Americans in another trumped-up war in Asia. Here you see one LNG tanker that holds enough natural gas in liquid form to supply 80,000 (German) homes for a year: Note the statement here that the US is now the largestexporter of LNG. Pay through the nose, suckers. PG&E warns in an insert in my bill that natural gas prices will soar due to "shortages" of natural gas: Shortages engineered by the USnatural gas suppliers and blessed by official Washington. Remember that song about the gold mine? "My wife got the gold and I got the shaft". That's how you'll feel when you get yourheating bill. Let's have a $2,000 check from the Treasury to offset this hosing. Turkey? USA? Who is vested interests since Russia's gas cut? - YouTube Let's hear on the floor of Congress how the Biden admin. is allowing this wholesale screwing of the American people and why Congress does not put a stop to it. Not a word sofar about this in official Washington. Of course the news media don't want to embarass elected officials by bringing this up. You don't bite the hand that feeds you. Don't rock theboat and we'll all leave from inside the beltway rich. This is just blatant government corruption. US AG Garland should launch an investigation into public corruption here. Put the US natural gas producers under oath and findout who in Congress they are bribing to let this continue. Is Biden being bribed? Where is Common Cause, Amanpour and Co., Sixty Minutes and others re this screwing? The States' Attorney's General should sue the federal government for letting this happen.

Hello, I wanted to address this group and ask about next steps in terms of the Creek maintenance andsafety. I am the owner of 87 Crescent Drive and our backyard was flooded and water came up to our house, rushed through our crawl spaces and into our basement. No one from Palo Alto Cityhas checked on our property or the neighbors who border the creek on Crescent Drive to see who flooded. Additionally, I am surprised PA maintenance hasn't checked to see if any of ourelderly neighbors need sandbags. East Palo Alto has put up sandbags and plastic behind my home which will push water my way. They have been responsive to the neighbors and theirEngineers were out a couple of days ago answering questions. Palo Alto has not. I heard from several members of this group in years past about plans for the creek construction project. It is my understanding the creek project is on hold due to litigation. Here are myconcerns/questions around the project: 1) Widening the Chaucer Bridge will make flooding worse down at the Woodland/University Bridge2) Do you know which properties were impacted this 12/31? I would think that is important information for the Engineer on the project3) We have had years to clean the garbage, trees and debris out the creek. Which agency is responsible for that? There are a bunch of dead trees and logs behind my house which arerestricting creek flow. 4) I spoke to the SFCJA person about the lack of a fence along Woodland/Universityespecially at the bus stop behind our house. This lack of fencing creates the following: people going into the creek: drinking, setting off fireworks, littering large items, graphitti, etc.Additionally during times like these it is really unsafe for children to have a path going down into the creek. I would think from an environmental perspective alone you would not wantpeople going into the creek and dumping garbage. It should be properly closed off especially in the more residentially crowded areas. Thank you for answering my questions.

Dear Mr. Sauls, Following our conversation earlier this week, I submit the following letter regarding the all-glass office project proposed on 3300 El Camino Real. The Santa Clara VAlley Audubon Society has no reason to believe that the building, as proposed and with City requirements,willbe safe for birds. It seems that the location within 300-feet from Matadero Creek, combined with the all-glass architecture and green roof, are likely to create an unjustifiable andunmitigated hazard to resident and migratory birds.

My latest bill for December usage indicates a charge of $2.22/therm compared to $1.01/therm from my November bill.

I’m already on the city’s rate assistance program. I shudder to think about what’s going to happen when costs go up to almost $5/therm for January. Please, this is really not tenable.

I’ve been down twice in the last month to drop off drugs that I don’t want to throw into the garbage and the doors have been locked and there’s no one around. I had to call dispatch who then told me there’s not enough staff to keep things open from 8 AM to 5 PM for the public. You really need to fix this because it isn’t right that a citizen can’t go into the police department if they need to .

What is State of the Valley? It's an annual "town hall" meeting where we assess how our region is faring. The centerpiece is always the Silicon Valley Index, a nationally-recognized report we've been publishing annually since 1995. At the conference we'll provide an in-depth briefing on the 2023 installment, and then you'll hear from our region's deepest- thinking experts and decision-makers about what they see ahead. Owing to continuing concern about the virus and its variants, our 2023 event will once again use a hybrid format. It will happen live and in person at CHM in Mountain View for an audience capped at 300, seated at sponsored tables (distanced, masks encouraged). Your organization can sponsor one of the few remaining tables by contacting our office. The three-hour event will be broadcast simultaneously via Brandlive, to a sizable audience in the Bay Area and beyond. Registration for the livestream ($35) is simple with a credit card, and we encourage you to grab yours right away. The 2023 Index paints a picture of a region going through a series of difficult adjustments, across several fronts. We're going to break it down systematically for you and — because audience surveys have adamantly asked for more — we're going to allocate considerably more time to the briefing. In fact, we're going to spread the briefing over two sessions, one on the state of the economy and one on the progress our community is making on its equity, sustainability and other goals. As always, we'll also be showcasing the expressive talents of our arts community. Whether in person or as part of our streaming audience, we hope you'll join in this important regional conversation. Sincerely, Russell Hancock signature Russell Hancock President & Chief Executive Officer Joint Venture Silicon Valley provides analysis and action on issues affecting our region's economy and quality of life.

Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Loran Harding <loran.harding@stanfordalumni.org>Date: Wed, Jan 11, 2023 at 1:27 PM Subject: Flood in Planada, East of MercedTo: Loran Harding <loran.harding@stanfordalumni.org> Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2023 To all- I hope that local TV news in Fresno covers this. They did not on Tues. Jan. 10, 2023, I don't think. KCBS AM740 in SF is squawking about Planada. They fought to save it but were forcedto give up. 90% of the residents are renters and few have flood insurance, says KCBS. Just east of Merced. PHOTOS: Floodwaters overtake streets and homes in Merced County, CA (kvpr.org) Newsom visited Capitola yesterday. He'll have to visit Planada in a boat. Newsom tours storm damaged Santa Cruz County (yahoo.com) Can California please get going on the berm idea? At least consider how it might be done?You push dirt up to form berms on farmland. Say berms around 100 acres and berms 10' tall. You channel water into these in a rain year like this. That gives you one thousand acre-ft. ofwater to perc into the aquifer. Two women at Stanford proposed this 10 yrs ago. I guess the idea drew a big laugh. You'd pay the farmer for his lost crop revenue in years you did this.BTW, some crops can grow in standing water. Wine grapes, I believe. You'd build lots of these, near the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers and direct the water into them in a rainyear like this. OTW trillions of gallons of precious water just flow to the Pacific. I think you'd push the berms up, forming a square maybe, and leave a notch to allow farming in there inmost years. But in a heavy rain year, you'd close off the notch and fill the space with water. We're talking about building berms with dirt, not titanium. You'd need canals to divert thewater out of the rivers and into these ponds. Build them on marginal land where possible. See the report from Stanford or talk to the two researchers. Both left Stanford after the report. Isent out emails about this when it was suggested. The whole idea is to get the water out of the rivers and into the aquifer, before it flows to the ocean. You have to impound water to get it to perc into the aquifer. Water on floodedland just drains off into the rivers, and heads for the ocean. BTW, totally unrelated: Re Demar Hamlin and his cardiac arrest when playing football. Dr. David Agis, professor of Medicine at USC was interviewed by KCBS. He said that thishappens when the heart is impacted at a particular point in its beat, I think he said. There's a name for it. He said this happens about 30 times per year in the US. He said "Football is arough game. The players put their lives at risk for the entertainment of the spectators". Direct quote. He said that you often have people trained in orthopaedics and in brain trauma, likeconcusions, on the sidelines. BUT usually not pepople trained in cardiac events. Mr. Hamlin was fortunate to have such people available in his case. Dr Agis said he wanted to see Mr.Hamlin breathing on his own by the second day, and that did happen. The interviewer at KCBS had asked what he wanted to see in this pt. He suggested that we need more people trained to spot cardiac events in football at alllevels, and having the equipment to restore a heartbeat. L. W. Harding Fresno, Ca.

Hello My name is Sangkavi, and I am deeply involved with raising awareness of lung cancer and lung cancer screening with the American Lung Cancer Screening Initiative (www.alcsi.org). I recently worked with Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf to raise awareness of lung cancer and lung cancer screening in Pennsylvania. Governor Wolf just released a public service announcement about lung cancer screening with the American Lung Cancer Screening Initiative. I’ve included Governor Wolf’s public service announcement here: Lung Cancer Screening PSA: Tom Wolf, Governor of Pennsylvania - YouTube I wanted to reach out to see if your mayor would be willing to record a similar video message to help increase awareness of lung cancer screening in Palo Alto, California. Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer in the world, but with early detection through lung cancer screening, tens of thousands of lives could be saved every year. If it would be helpful, we would be happy to draft a script for the video message. Thank you for your time! Sincerely, Sangkavi From:Jeff Austin To:Mark Landesmann; Council, City; Shikada.Ed@cityofpaloalto.org Subject:RE: [CPNA] Flood Risks and Failure of Local Government Date:Tuesday, January 10, 2023 1:32:35 PM Some people who received this message don't often get email from jeff@albionpartners.com.

Dear Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council, Dear City Manager Shikada, As has been evidenced by the recent rains, the design of the Pope/Chaucer bridge is to blame for flooding in our neighborhood. I am unsure what calculations were used when designing the current bridge configuration in terms of necessary open area to allow adequate flow but I am sure that whatever calculations were used was, and is, wrong. Previous email communication referenced the reason(s) behind the constricted design – namely, to bolster the original bridge by closing up the original opening to provide additional structural integrity to the abutments. Perhaps a necessary fix to address the structural issues but a cheap and irresponsible fix nonetheless, as I understand it. The constriction caused by the design is at fault. This much is clear. As a citizen of Palo Alto and resident immediately adjacent to the location most susceptible to the creek jumping its bank, it is clear to me that the bridge should go. Previous reasoning to ignore the bridge was to control flooding downstream. The idea, as I understand it, was that if the bridge was removed, the resultant flows would flood downstream areas. Now that significant mitigation has been completed in downstream areas, it is time to address this remaining piece. If the bridge is rebuilt to allow traffic flow to/from Menlo Park, so be it. But, the bridge in its current state should go. It is a danger to life and property. Enough. Please take action. Respectfully submitted, Jeff Austin 881 Lytton Avenue From: crescent-park-pa@googlegroups.com <crescent-park-pa@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Mark Landesmann Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2023 1:13 PM To: city.council@cityofpaloalto.org; Shikada.Ed@cityofpaloalto.org; Crescent Park PA <crescent- park-pa@googlegroups.com> Subject: [CPNA] Flood Risks and Failure of Local Government January 10, 2023 Dear Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council, dear City Manager Shikada: Congratulations to the newly elected members of the City Council, and on the election ofMayor Kou and Vice Mayor Stone. The Pope Chaucer bridge is a clear and present danger to our community, especially because climate danger continues to make the weather more erratic and the type of precipitous rainfallthat we have experienced in the last 12 days more likely. I therefore ask that you please remove this flood management obscenity as soon as possible. Local governance is very hard,but it is nevertheless an embarrassment for our city that it has been unable to remove the bridge in the 25 years since the danger emanating from and because of it has become obviousto everyone.

From:Jo Ann Mandinach To:Council, City; City Mgr Subject:Flood risks and failures of local government, especially in its COMMUNICATIONS Date:Monday, January 9, 2023 7:24:22 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. Hello. You've been barraged with a lot of comments about the failure of local governmentduring our floods so I'll limit mine to only one aspect: the late and erroneous information sent out via community alerts, posted on the city web sites, disseminated to various local media outlets and posted to the city's power outage map that left people driving around in dangerous conditions and wasting our timesearching out information, 1) We have a HUGE and costly communications staff. The City Manager has a staff of 13 asst and deputy managers, Uplift staffers etc. They should be able tocommunicate better, faster and more accurately. This IS Silicon Valley! 2) The contradictory information about the location of sand, sandbags and shovelswasn't information -- it was the grist for the sad game of FIND THE SANDBAGS. The San Jose Mercury News publishes a regional wrapup of where the sandbags, sand etc. could be found and there was ONLY a footnote for Palo Alto saying we'drun out. 3) Who organized the volunteers filling the sandbags, updating information, finding shovels etc? Not our highly paid city staff but unpaid teenaged volunteers! It wasVice Mayor Kou's participation that helped publicize these volunteer efforts, againNOT our paid Communications staff. 4) HUNDREDS of people got stuck in the El Camino /University Ave bridge traffic jam UNNECESSARILY. I was stuck there for an hour at 1:00 PM hoping to crossthe University Ave bridge after a lunch date. The City alert wasn't sent until 5:04PM blaming the jam on work done by EAST Palo Alto at their end if University when EPA's debris-clearing efforts had been going on all day, When I got stuck there at 1:00, traffic was backed up past Stanford Shopping Center andpeople were forced to make dangerous U-Turns and take unfamiliar detours. I've personally beta tested the city's traffic alerts that were SUPPOSED to warn us which roads to avoid. None of them seem to have been actually launched -- yet wekeep paying for them and hearing you brag about your great software! You're wasting our time and our money! ENOUGH 5) Instead of getting reliable information from the city, people had to rely on information found on NextDoor and from neighborhood groups like Crescent Park Neighborhood Assn and the comment forums on PA Daily Post and Palo AltoWeekly, Maybe you can spare someone to monitor them to get decent informationon power outages, the street sweepers missing their streets, the unanswered city phones to which people had been directed etc etc...

Hi City Council, My husband and I moved to Palo Alto in 1997. During the 1998 flood, our front house basement was completed flooded, 3-feet deep. It took months to get the water out and replaceour heating system. Over the years, I would hear about meeting after meeting regarding the Pope/Chaucer bridge. Then came New Year Eve 2022. Miraculously, our block was spared,but many in our neighborhood were not. Some of you may be new, or relatively new to the City Council, but this is your city, your City Council. Don’t blame your predecessors. Please pick up this important issue and do everythingyou can to accelerate the replacement of the current bridge. Thank you.

Dear City Council: Congratulations to the new council members and thank you all for your public service. I echo the urgency my neighbors feel to sustainably address our flood risk. - please remove the current Pope - Chaucer bridge immediately- please expedite the building of the new Newell Road and Pope Chaucer bridges Separately, please explore whether neighbors who have frivolously sued Palo Alto to delay constructionand lost in court can be compelled to pay for the city’s expenses.

We were lucky at that time to have very little yet stored inour basement, as it was flooded 2 feet deep. It is astonishing to me that little has changedregarding the Pope/Chaucer Bridge and the creek all these years and that the can has beenkicked down the road. I realize there was a lawsuit holding up progress, but now that it'sbeen lost, I hope the city can finally move forward and make up for lost time. This needs tobe a priority. I also feel that the city's updates on the situation have been meager at best. Iam thankful to the leader of Crescent Park's neighborhood group, Tom Rindfleisch, for themost useful information re the situation on the ground.

Dear City Council Members, I wanted to let you know that I highly recommend Greg Tanaka to be voted vice-mayor of theCity of Palo Alto. Compared to the other current candidates, Greg has the experience that is needed for this vice-mayor position. Besides being a CEO, Chair of the Finance Committee,Chair of the PTC and President of the College Terrance neighborhood association (CTRA), I also served with Greg on the CTRA when the association was originally established, settingup the bylaws, etc. He was instrumental when setting the groundwork for this association, as well as getting the neighborhood excited about it and on board, and starting regularneighborhood meetings. He was wonderful to work with and I know he has much to contribute if he is made vice-mayor.

Date:Monday, January 9, 2023 2:04:25 PM CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Be cautiousof opening attachments and clicking on links. Dear Mayor Burt and City Council - I've been told an item regarding recent flood response is on the table for tonight's city council meeting. I want to commend the Zachary Perron (Police Department), and Ingrid Velasquez (City Manager'sOffice) for responding quickly this morning to my inquiry regarding parking restriction suspensions. As I'm sure you are aware, more rain or longer duration of rain would have made today's close close amore catastrophic event. Even following NOAA, GOES Radar, USGS Stream Gage and our own CreekMonitor, it was not clear what we could expect until about 9 or so this morning. When we went to bed, theforecast was no higher than 9 feet. Understanding that the city begins it's action stage when the gage hits 9.5 feet, it would exceedinglyhelpful to know if the city could include suspension of parking restrictions in the list of things that occurautomatically and residents can take action to move cars before going to sleep on the night of a badstorm. Thank you, Respectively, Eileen Skrabutenas1044 Hamilton Avenue650-224-6402
